Diablo 2 Resurrected Unique Item Changes
Changes to Unique Items
Unique items are one of the most amazing things to find in the game. But they are completely out scaled by Runewords. I would improve some of the "almost good enough" unique items, and add socket slots, so they will see more usability. Only changes are listed here.
Elite Amazon Items (Changes To Unique Items)
Just some minor updates to make them more viable.
• Thunderstroke
Replenish would make Ethereal very good.
Replenishes Quantity [1 in 5 sec.] [Added]
• Blood Ravens Charge
Just a weak bow overall. Added sockets greatly improves the overall feel of this bow, and switched the revive charges to +skill points.
+230-280% Enhanced Damage (varies) [Increased from 180-230%]
+5-8 To Revive [Changed from 30 Charges]
Socketed (3) [Added]

Elite Assassin Items (Changes To Unique Items)
All the elite level claws are just.... not good. The 1 unique exceptional (Bartuc's) claw out classes all of the elite level claws, and is much easier to find in game. These claws all have great names, and I aimed to match the stats to the names of the claws.

Elite Barbarian Items (Changes To Unique Items)
The 1 unique exceptional (Arreat's) just out classes all of the elite level helms in most cases. They just need to be a bit stronger.

New Unique Items
Many of Diablo 2 elite level items do not have a unique version, this makes most of the high level uniques you find significantly weaker than runeword counterparts. Most unique items become obsolete because they are out scaled by runewords, and because runewords can't use jewels, it means most jewels become obsolete as well. I would add many new high level uniques with sockets, to give much needed variability to builds. Here are some of my ideas:
|
